    Not sure how historically accurate this film is, but a hoot to watch!!! Over the top and never lets up for a minute.

    Idi Amin - great subject for an exploitation film and this movie does not disappoint as it highlights some of the more unpleasant aspects of his reign of terror. The old 'severed head in the fridge' gag always goes down well with horror film fans!

    This movie is a movie that leaves a lasting impression, of just what a madman Amin really was. Olita does a memorable, if not comparable role to Amin. It shows what happens when a war monger takes command of a tiny 3rd world country- Uganda. You better like this film or else....

    The dialogue was, at times, simply hilarious. Amin is depicted as a childish psychopath who, among other things, practices cannibalism and takes part in motor rallies. In other words, this movie is pure exploitation, and it certainly gets some extra shock value when you concider that it came out only two years after Amin was overthrown. Could have been slightly shorter, though.
